Dr John Harrison was a miracle worker. His controversial treatments restored sight to the blind added years to terminally ill patients' lives and cured the incurable. As the author of the internationally best-selling book Love Your Disease: It's Keeping You Healthy passion commitment and an unshakeable belief in healing were his life. They were also his downfall. John was treating a patient suffering a serious mental illness when she accused him of sexual assault. In the ensuing trial it became obvious that his real enemy was not one troubled woman but the medical establishment itself. And a powerful enemy it proved to be.
